Went there in December Also I'm likely to be Digging there at the end of this year MuHAHAHA Heres some pics: (one is of the Amphitheater, and it was torrential rain when we to see it so apologies for the quality of the picture!)

All in all it's a really nice place, A bit on the kiddie side, but not enough for it to be very informative they have this recreation of a garrison room at the back with all the Armour in so kiddies can try it on (As such it's rather small) So one of my tour group decided it would be a good idea to try some chain mail on, needless to say when he couldn't get it off and was stuck it was utterly hilarious when the guide person was trying to pull him out of it!

I'll see if I've got any more pictures

it certainly does look like him.......I also noticed the pommel of his gladius it looks just like my wooden version...detailed in the same way so i would imagine Len from fabrica has made that and a lot of the armour and helmets etc too!
